The Twelfth House

This month we’re sitting down with guests to talk about the big M word. That's right, money, honey.  We're going deep into how we relate to, avoid relating to, and hate relating to it. Yikes! That sounds heavy, but luckily in this episode, we’re joined by the prolific money mindset creator, Alyssa Davies of Mixed Up Money. 

Alyssa Davies is a published author living in Calgary, Alberta. She is the founder of the two-time award-winning Canadian Personal Finance Blog of the Year, Mixed Up Money. Check out her books, The 100-Day Financial Goal Journal, and Financial First Aid. 

We're also upvoting Alyssa's brand-new pod, moneyfeels.buzzsprout.com, which comes out this Thursday.

This month we’re sitting down with guests to talk about the big M word. That's right, money, honey. And all how we relate to, avoid relating to and hate relating to it. Yikes! That sounds heavy, but luckily in this episode, we’re joined by the hilarious, thoughtful, and ingenious entrepreneur, Lauren Haynes of Wooden Spoon Herbs.

Lauren walks us through the spiraling path of transitioning from bootstrapping her business, to raising venture capital, saying goodbye to Facebook ads, and the exciting changes that are afoot for the business in a season of big change.

Welcome to our Creator Communities series. Throughout the next few episodes, we’ll be speaking to several creators about how they do the damn thing. When is it time to go all in? When is it time to rest? Retire? How do you know if you’re on the right track? Is balance achievable while launching your business and working full-time? How many friends do you have? Money do you make?

These are just a sample of the intimate questions we’ll be diving into while we speak to our guests over the next few episodes. 

This episode features a lovely discussion with Michelle and Les Alfred from the Balanced Black Girl. Les is the founder and host of Balanced Black Girl, an online wellness community and podcast focused on wellness, healthy habits, spacious productivity, personal finance, and self-care from the perspectives of Black women.

Today Michelle is on the mic speaking about the five archetypal journeys of the seeker, the influencer, the detective, the alchemist, the advocate, and the visionary. 

By understanding the initiations, dark nights of the soul, and milestones of these archetypes, we can use their journeys as roadmaps for overcoming challenges and a glimpse into the future and finding peace in our spiraling paths to creating our sacred work.

What do we mean when we talk about "Wellness"? We know that it’s a multi-billion dollar industry built on products and services centered on “self-care”, and we also understand that to be "well", means much more than purchasing the latest green powder from Whole Foods.

This is part 3/3 in our series unpacking the complex topic of what it means to work, take part, and profit from the (capital W) Wellness industry.

This week Michelle and Wallis are musing on the demise of a specific type of “Wellness” consumerism if it’s gone for good, why it matters, and what this means for the future of the complex and weighty world of “Wellness”.

We want to hear from you! All we do, we do for you, and your opinions and hot takes really matter. Let us know with a voice note here, your thoughts on this series. We’d love to hear your genius takes and share your sweet dulcet tones with the community on the pod. Don't be shy :)

What do we mean when we talk about "Wellness" today? We know that it’s a multi-billion dollar industry built on products and services centered on “self-care”, and we also understand that to be "well", means much more than purchasing the latest green powder.

This is part two of a three-part series we’ll be speaking with several guests to unpack the nuanced and complex layers of what it means to work, take part, and profit from the (capital W) Wellness industry.

This week we’re chatting with Danielle Friedman about her incredible work on the history of women’s fitness from the 60s onward and how this history informs our most complex notions of what it means to be well in our bodies today.
